How much do our wheels weigh?

i guess you're concerned about weight if you want to go from alloys to steelies, but i dont think its worth it really

worth it how? The rims on the EX look like crap on a red car. Id like to put LX rims on it and put some noce chrome covers on.

Is this Joke?
I really hope so.

Stock steelies are about 18-19 lbs
2000 Si Rims are 16.5
2002 Si Rims are 20

Not sure how much 04 EX wheels weigh.
Just take them off and put it on Scale.

I switched them and frankly they look a heck of a lot better than the alloys. Cleaned and polished they look great in black. Should i paint the chrome lugs??

Stock steelies weigh more than that. They weighed significantly more than my 22lb 17s and more still than my GSR's.
